November 28th 2nd update

Nancy met with Dr Anthony today.  There is clearly cancer in the liver.  They now need to see if there are spots in other areas, especially the lungs.  So Nancy has a full head-to-toe scan Friday, preliminary results on Monday, and will begin treatments on Wednesday afternoon.  She will either begin the AFINITOR program or may begin chemotherapy based on scan results.  Dr Anthony is also working with Matt at Evergreen in Kirkland. Nancy will mostly rest and get ready for next week.  Again, thanks to all for wonderful support! 

November 28th update

Nancy had a scan on Monday.  Results show new cancer lesions (around 10) on her liver. This is the first area where the cancer was not contained in the bones.  We are meeting today with the Doctor for the treatment plan.  Nancy will also have her Zomeda infusion.  I will be updating this again tonight with whatever we find out.  Thanks for all your support for Nancy!

November 26th update

Nancy is at the Doctor's today.  She is getting IV's and a scan on her abdomen.  She will start her new meds on Wednesday.  She will be on AFINITOR and Aromasin which can also be called Exemestane.  She will take both daily.  The review of the meds and side effects will happen Wednesday, however we know she will have Doctor appointments every two weeks for some time.  That is really all we know today.  She will rest up and get ready to start on Wednesday.  Nancy had a great Thanksgiving first in Green Bay and then with Todd, Ally, Mike and the grand-boys in Seattle.
